Sunday with sunshine, but still cool, so hiking it was! The well-known Briesetal valley in the north of Berlin beckoned and then surprised with icy paths and occasional patches of snow.

Because the past few days had been so much fun, we decided to do another hike. We got up early again at 6 a.m. to make the most of the daylight. Starting from the birthplace of the first Cypriot president, Makarios III, it was a short but very varied loop. The very steep beginning turned out to be a

...At the end of October, the sun sets in Cyprus shortly before 5 p.m. So we decided to take the road back to avoid steep descents in the dark. Beforehand, we inspected bridges 3 and 4. It's clear they've been renovated. The ice cream truck was gone again; only the fire station remained. Were they waiting

When the Venetians ruled the island (1489-1570), they built several bridges to facilitate trade from north to south. Some of these still stand today, some having been restored. This is especially true for those higher up in the mountains, which had been somewhat forgotten due to newly built roads. Due

The Avakas Gorge is impressive, but you can cross it in less than 5 km. Most visitors seem to turn back before then; the last kilometer of the gorge is noticeably quieter. We opted for a longer loop and were rewarded after the gorge with beautiful views of the mountainous landscape and later, the sea

It was beautiful – and exhausting. There seem to be more muscles in the body than those needed for cycling. It wasn't exactly empty, either. On the way back, I was able to dodge while standing and didn't have to flop down on the board to avoid falling into the water. ;-) Luckily, I had a good instructor with me.

A beautiful tour through the heath. After the bike paths along the roads became too noisy and boring for us, we ventured onto the forest trails. This wouldn't have been possible today with a racing bike, but with 37/42 mm tires, the ride was mostly smooth. A bit bumpy at times, and briefly sandy. An

A special winter day spontaneously drew us to the Baltic Sea. Ultimately, it wasn't just one natural spectacle, but several. First and foremost, of course, was the frozen Baltic Sea. In some places, the waves seemed frozen solid at the shore. Then there were the beach grass, trees, and bushes, all encased
